WORKSHOPS

Health at Every Size (HAES) Series

Three 8-Week Groups to Support Your Path to Body and Self Acceptance

HAES emphasizes health enhancement, size and self-acceptance, the pleasure of eating well, the joy of movement and an end to weight bias.

Using a combination of therapeutic approaches, HAES will strengthen your commitment to your health by focusing on quality of life and self-care as opposed to dieting for cosmetic reasons.

Be Nourished has designed three programs to help women let go of dieting and food/weight obsession to develop a well-adjusted relationship with food, movement and self. These three groups can be taken individually or as a series.
